Agree.
I have never been asked to leave anywhere because of my ink.
The only questions I have ever had after compliments, was what was the significance of the dates.
I am of the mind though, that the ink must have meaning which can last a life time, not something that seems good at the moment.
Also have never seen an artist do ink with walk ins, and long discussions with the person about why they are getting ink. (OH, who knows maybe I just go to great inkers).
Also know many men who have lots of ink for prison ministry, as they are not allowed to bring Bibles, so they ink their walk with Christ and the story of Salvation plus surfers who ink Salvation messages, so when they are asked have a pictorial of the Message.

Me neither. Only two of my tats are visible in short sleeves and neither are vulgar, explicit, etc... One is a tribal design I came up with and the other is a tarantula (My Dad is an arachnophobe).

If you open up your business to the public, you should expect the public to bring their baggage along with them. However, it is YOUR business and you define the limits. If we the public think you are taking things too far, we'll take our money elsewhere and you will go out of business.

Funny how free markets take care of problems like that all on their own without some bureaucrat getting their pound of flesh out of the deal...
